Wow, you've really been around a long time- 2.75 is over 5 years old! We added support for version 3 and version 4 HanDBase formats to iPhone but skipped v2 (and v1) to keep the program size down. The 2.75 databases are not recognized by the program or Desktop Connect. The good news is that they are quite easy to update to v3 format with your v3 desktop. Just open the 2.75 database with the HanDBase3 desktop and it will update it for you. Select File, Save as and save it to a new location. Then install that to your device. No need to convert to CSV and back, though that would also work.
The only hiccups with conversions we've seen is when someone is converting a database with link or linked fields and doesn't have the other database file in the same path. Since the two tables are related and rely on each other for information, they must both be present in the same folder so it can find the info it needs to convert it.
Let me know if you run into any further problems with this!

Added titles to the CSV; that's now working. But the HDB 2.75e databases are not transferring over. Alas! Is there a workaround? I'd hate to have to convert all the old databases to CSV!
